The author, Brian Goldstone, has spent six years researching this issue and has written a book about it. The article features several individuals, including Celeste, who has been homeless for years, and Rhea, a single mother of four who is struggling to make ends meet. The article also explores the issue of credit scores and how they can affect an individual's ability to rent a home. The author argues that homelessness is not just a personal issue, but also a systemic problem that requires a broader solution." ] ], "content": "nostr:nprofile1qy3hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtt5v4ehgmn9wshxkwrn9ekxz7t9wgejumn9waesqgyeg4dxy5e0jssqyu70ct4j0m6v7mu02p3smp4m2c7tdzmmf64fzvsp98pe\nhttps://assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com/hub/i/r/2025/11/15/7b59e23c-3d99-423b-8239-174297dc3fdd/thumbnail/1200x630/dd4063f6ba3eca6224d4bd5c4cf474e9/celeste-homelessness-1280.jpg\nDespite working full-time, many families are locked out of the rental housing market, due to low wages, soaring rents and poor credit, and have been pushed into homelessness.\nhttps://www.cbsnews.com/news/when-the-employed-are-pushed-into-homelessness/", "sig": "794bd3e9a8d7a4c733ec3195577c38f81c8f9dbf4fdebae97e151f7bfbc4e6db3c2b0a20ed70b576fb5e695c22a14cf17936282a0895c7e6607704e6eee1597b" }
